What's on your Wednesday Menu?
on 7/15/20 6:04 am
I am so happy with this cool dry air, too! I have on long sleeves and no AC!
Morning all,
I had a great early morning session with my therapist and feel less "stiff upper lip" and more "grateful and doing the best I can." I'm so glad that I have her, because I trust her and learn so much about how to make my life better.
A difficult day already with pain, but I managed to get out of bed early and I'm putting in my work time.
Yesterday wasn't perfect with food but some of my choices were healthy. Today is a new day to make new choices.
2 cups black Earl Grey w/ Miralax (which isn't doing all that I need it to do...)
Berry & PB RXBar
Carbmaster vanilla yogurt w/ blackberries & slivered almonds
Boar's Head curry chicken, grape tomatoes
Tea latte w/ protein powder
Leftover steak & broccoli
Blueberries
Please take good care everyone and be safe!

Good morning.
QOTD - Absolutely. I have always believed in the power of my $, and although it may not seem like a huge sum, it adds up when other conscientious people refuse to support **** companies. There is a local BBQ shop here (huge here in TX, especially San Antonio) and when I found out about where their donation dollars go to, I cut them out. Wasn't too hard, I don't eat meat but I used to buy their sides, desserts (pies omg), tea, etc. Just lately, my favorite vegan restaurant has been on the chopping block for allegations of serving NON vegan desserts (advertised as vegan), it's a kosher restaurant that has broken kosher rules, sexual harassment of employees, etc., list goes on and on. There's simply too many other restaurants and businesses to support, that I don't need to spend my money there. So, I don't.
Breakfast - fasting, hot black coffee, hot tea, topo chico
Lunch - tofu scramble, kale, soyrizo, potatoes, onion, nutritional yeast, vegan cheese
Snack - fruit smoothie or crackers with peanut butter
Dinner - who the heck knows. The enchiladas are gone, and so is the spaghetti so...I may have to cook.
Have a great day everyone!
